Over the summer, we were back at one of our favorite venues, Fairmont Hotel in Washington, DC, to assist one of our clients with their wedding. What I loved about this wedding is that the groom uses a wheelchair and he never lets that stop him from doing anything and everything in life, like dancing on his wedding day. His bride was also very thoughtful of him throughout the planning process.

First Touch before the ceremony instead of a First Look.I love how respectful the bride was of her groom and chose to sit and be at eye level with him during the wedding ceremony.

On this summer day in Washington, DC, we had the pleasure of coordinating this Indian-Jamaican fusion wedding. We started the day with a ceremony Sligo Seventh-Day Adventist Church in Takoma Park, MD. Being that the couple was Seventh-Day Adventist, there was no alcohol served at their wedding reception, held at the grand Atrium of the Ronald Reagan Building in Washington, DC. This didn’t dampen the fun at all. Their culinary team did an excellent job with a buffet dinner featuring both Indian and Jamaican dishes. All photos by Mari Harsan Studios

The couple’s friend, Maurice Staple from the Acapella group Committed (as seen on NBC’s The Sing Off), sang for the bride’s processional.
